March’s TVI dry van freight reading—at 305—was up 23% compared to February, while the refrigerated TVI—at 206—and the flatbed TVI—at 247—were up 13% and 24%, respectively, for the same period. DAT said that these readings indicate that more loads moved in March, a month which also had more shipping days than February.

FTR’s Shippers Conditions Index falls to a new record low reading

The February SCI came in at -17.9, down from January’s -10.1, topping March 2021 as the “toughest month to date for shippers,” noted FTR.
